This is my daughter who is 2 1/2 years old... if she can dub a fly, you can too!! Check out the step by step photos below, and please do not use any of these images for any reason unless you have my written permission.
Step 1: Use a little wax if you are starting out, it helps keep the dubbing on the thread and it helps you twist it on.
Step 2: Get a pinch of dubbing and twist it on the thread in one direction. 
Step 3: Wrap the dubbing on your hook. 
Step 4: Admire your creation! Try to start out practicing the dubbing technique before you move on to actual patterns. Use all kinds of dubbing so you get a feel for every type. (don't worry I snip the hooks off)
Her finished fly... completely done all by herself, no help from dad! (yeah I'm bragging a little but that's what dads are supposed to do) Thanks for visiting... you can look for an advanced dubbing instruction post in the future.
